Haha, I don't get the big deal about oral sex, and I certainly don't get any pleasure from giving it.

Grin @ pippit

I also don't get what's so desirable about chewing on other people's appendages or having your own chuff munched. Don't get that at all.

I do not get Twitter and God alone knows I've tried

I do not get TOWIE at all. Not even a little bit.

I seriously do not get Heavy Metal 'music'

I don't get people getting all hung up and obsessed with singers and actors. Seriously, get a grip.

TV Soaps. Why do this to yourself?

Best stop now - I'm in Meldrew mode and this could get boring............

Magazines for children too young to actually read
Cupcakes
Leggings worn as actual trousers (okay, I am actually jealous, rather than bemused)

The Royal Wedding or indeed anything involving feeling part of a national moment
Computer games
Sex (in both senses :( )
